Post by Roystan » Sat May 19, 2012 7:53 pm

Is this actually any good?

I remember a while back an article someone wrote on this and the stainless steel manifold and downpipe - That it lost them horse power? Anyone know this or know that there like?

I cant comment on the quality of the exhaust as such but on the guy selling parts, I have bought an item from him and not had any problems with import tax. I did a lot of research into " jdmhonda parts " and a lot of people have been stung for tax after this guy state's you would not be charged after he charge's you the tax .

you could be ripped off.......

At that price, its proberly going to be a pile of jobby. I bought a eBay induction kit of this guy a few years ago and I had no problem. If your after a cheaper system, a powerflow exhaust is a good start £280 fitted. If you can push the boat out, go for a solid fab one.

I bought this exact exhaust a few years ago - he sent me the wrong one - the hangers were wrong for the 4th gen and not as in the picture. So after emailing him - I eventually sent it back on his say so (at my expense) for refund. He was convinced it would fit. I had to try install it first, and then take pics when it didn't fit right. I never received the refund. I got proof of delivery too. I could not get any response from him after that. I paid on debit card through paypal - which was a mistake. Paypal said I run out of time to claim.

Its the only time I got stung on the net.

If you are not happy with it - or they accidentally send you the wrong item - you have no chance of a replacement. But if paid with credit card - you could do a reverse charge by complaining to the card company.
